The Android Wear interface is simple, which is a good thing, but opening apps is a little convoluted. If you want to use your voice, it’s not too bad, but if you want to navigate with your finger, forget it.

Wear Mini Launcher aims to make things a lot easier, and it does. Once the app is installed, just place your finger at the top left corner and swipe to the right. An opaque drawer will open with all of your apps. Six app icons can appear at the same time, but you can scroll down revealing more.

This is the first release so it’s a little buggy as expected, but the developer, Nicolas POMEPUY, is eager to improve it. Right now, you can’t customize your apps, but I would imagine that is in the works. Another cool option would be to place your most used apps at the top.

Give it a try and let me know what you think.
